According to research, psychological safety is a critical component of any high-functioning team. Psychological safety occurs when team members can comfortably admit mistakes, voice concerns, brainstorm off-the-wall ideas, share honest opinions, and ask questions – all without fear of judgment or reprisal. Without it, workplace interactions become dysfunctional and workplace engagement suffers, leading to decreased productivity and efficiency.
In this session, we’ll discuss the important role of psychological safety in the legal profession and explore strategies and tools to create or boost the level of psychological safety in your offices, teams, and one-on-one interactions.
